signing commits

Hi,

Just came to read this:
http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/1584
and it made me think. Could this happen
with subversion too?

If you read the posts below the news 
Andreas Dilgers wonders if it's possible
to add GPG signatures to BK - I'm
wondering now if this could be done
with subversion?

According to that discussion it wouldn't be easy
to do that. :(

Well there have been some loose talk about that.

You could sign each revision with the PGP key of the commiter. i.e.
compute the checksum of the diff ( with MD5 or whatever ), and sign it.
Could even be stored on the SVN server itself. If the server is
compromised, they still can't fake a correct signature.

Problem though is how to reconstruct the checksum of the changes locally
when you do svn update ?
